We give a characterization of positive definite integrable functions on a product of two Gelfand pairs as an integral of positive definite functions on one of the Gelfand pairs with respect to the Plancherel measure on the dual of the other…
The Schr\"odinger equation is thoroughly analysed for the isotropic oscillator in the three-dimensional space of constant positive curvature in the spherical and cylindrical systems of coordinates. The expansion coefficients between the…
With view to applications, we establish a correspondence between two problems: (i) the problem of finding continuous positive definite extensions of functions $F$ which are defined on open bounded domains $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}$, on the…
In this work we start by determining all irreducible spherical functions $\Phi$ of any $K $-type associated to the pair $(G,K)=(\SO(4),\SO(3))$. The functions $P=P(u)$ corresponding to the irreducible spherical functions of a fixed $K$-type…
We consider the class $\Psi_d$ of continuous functions $\psi \colon [0,\pi] \to \mathbb{R}$, with $\psi(0)=1$ such that the associated isotropic kernel $C(\xi,\eta)= \psi(\theta(\xi,\eta))$ ---with $\xi,\eta \in \mathbb{S}^d$ and $\theta$…
This paper deals with some simple results about spherical functions of type $\delta$, namely new integral formulas, new results about behavior at infinity and some facts about the related $C_\sigma$ functions.
We study real-valued valuations on the space of Lipschitz functions over the Euclidean unit sphere $S^{n-1}$. After introducing an appropriate notion of convergence, we show that continuous valuations are bounded on sets which are bounded…
In his seminal paper, Schoenberg (1942) characterized the class P(S^d) of continuous functions f:[-1,1] \to \R such that f(\cos \theta) is positive definite over the product space S^d \times S^d, with S^d being the unit sphere of \R^{d+1}…
In this article a relation between curvature functionals for surfaces in the Euclidean space and area functionals in relative differential geometry will be given. Relative differential geometry can be described as the geometry of surfaces…
The main purpose of this paper is to compute all irreducible spherical functions on $G=\SU(3)$ of arbitrary type $\delta\in \hat K$, where $K={\mathrm{S}}(\mathrm{U}(2)\times\mathrm{U}(1))\simeq\mathrm{U}(2)$. This is accomplished by…
The main purpose of this paper is to compute all irreducible spherical functions on $G={SL}(2,{\mathbb C})$ of arbitrary type $\delta\in \hat K$, where $K={SU}(2)$. This is accomplished by associating to a spherical function $\Phi$ on $G$ a…
Let U denote the Urysohn sphere and consider U as a metric structure in the empty continuous signature. We prove that every definable function from U^n to U is either a projection function or else has relatively compact range. As a…
We prove weighted versions of the 2D Restriction Conjecture for the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Our results involve the weight functions $(1+|x|)^\alpha(1+|y|)^\beta$ and $(1+|x|+|y|)^\gamma$ with $\alpha,\beta,\gamma\geq 0$.
We apply the recently introduced notion, due to Dyckerhoff, Kapranov and Schechtman, of $N$-spherical functors of stable infinity categories, which generalise spherical functors, to the setting of monoidal categories. We call an object…
This paper presents recent results obtained by the authors (partly in collaboration with A. Dabrowska) concerning expansions of zonal functions on Euclidean spheres into spherical harmonics and some applications of such expansions for…
We propose methods towards a systematic determination of d dimensional curved spaces where Euclidean field theories with rigid supersymmetry can be defined. The analysis is carried out from a group theory as well as from a supergravity…
It is shown that the groups of automorphisms of Euclidean spaces are isomorphic to the groups of topologic automorphisms of respectively factored arithmetic spaces. In particular, the geometry of Euclidean n-space with positive signature is…
This article provides a novel and simple range description for the spherical mean transform of functions supported in the unit ball of an odd dimensional Euclidean space. The new description comprises a set of symmetry relations between the…
Under certain conditions, we obtain sharp bounds on some functionals defined in the coefficient space of starlike functions. It has been found that the functionals are closely associated with certain coefficient problems, which are of…
Functionals (i.e. functions of functions) are widely used in quantum field theory and solid-state physics. In this paper, functionals are given a rigorous mathematical framework and their main properties are described. The choice of the…
